Let me guess: white wire with blue crimp on connectors?

I made it for the '83 a long time ago, very handy to have.

The "spare relay" is junk IIRC. The relay on the car was replaced 2-3 years
ago. It has no rev limiter. Someone asked for the part number a year ago,
but I did forget to write it down.

Gino sat two years in my garage. I guess this is where all the electrical
problems came from, as I never had any electrical issue with it.
